CONSUMPTION OF LIQUORS.

At this time, when various modes Of treat
ing tho liquor question are widely discussed,
it will interest many to know the comparative
consumption of intoxicants in different coun-
tries. The Bureau Of Statistics, in it's quar-
terly report just issued presents an elaborate
review Of the consumption Of spirits. wines
and malt Liquors in this country. Great Britain,
Germany and France. The sta tistics given are
not quite as fresh as might have been obtained
in some cases. but tho only known changes
since 1885, the last year quoted, have been
relatively unimportant. In Great Britain the
consumption Of foreign spirits was larger dur
ing the nine months ending with 1885 than
during the corresponding months Of 1855 by
100000 gallons, while tho consumption OF do
mestio spirits was smaller by 1884, 900 gallons.
and the consumption Of beer was larger by
45s.OOO barrels. In this country, also, the
latest returns show an increase since 1888.
and especially in malt liquors.
II will surprise many to find that the people
of this country arc. on the whole, moro tenn
pcrate than those Of either Of the other great
nations. Moro spirits in proportion to popu-
lation are consumed in this country, and yet
but little more than In Great Britain and
Germany and less than in France But the
consumption OF wine Is about the Same as In
Great Britain, and little more than an hum
dredth part Of the consumption in France. The
consumption Of malt liquors is little more than
half that of Germany in proportion to popuia-
ton. and little moro than third OF that OF
Great Britain The figures given in the OIL
cial statement by tho Bureau OF Statistics Tor
tho four countries. no returns being received
for tho consumption Of malt liquors in France
or Of wines in Germany, arc in ga lions per
capta as follows:

The President is persistent. In 1885 he ap-
pointed as Minister to Russia General A. K
Lawton. about whose eligibility to office there
was some doubt. owing to the disabilities he
had incurred by taking part in the rebellion.
A great outcry resulted over the appointment
of 10 unrepentant rebel. and although the
Attorney General formally declared that Gen.
eral Lawton was eligible, the nomination was
withdrawn. Now, however, the President has
returned to Lawton and made him Minister to
Austria.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1887-04-17

Undoubtedly the considerable consumption
Of wines in Germany and Of malt liquors In
Franco would swell these aggregates for both
countries to an important extent. Yet 1t ap-
pears. taking the figures presented, that the
consumption in this country OF liquors OF all
kinds is but 1890 gallons per capita. against
24.92 gallons in Germany. BALI gallons In
Great Britain and $3.50 gallons in France
The same official report gives evidence 10
show that the quantity Of spirits consumed In
the arts in this country is much smaller than
many have supposed. The evidence indica ties
that IL docs not exceed 100000 gallons
yearly. or about onc-tcnth Of the production.
Elaborate estimates are given OF the cost OF
liquors to retail purchasers. which are perhapt'
not rs reliable az the official statements OF
consumption. but the aggregate is reckoncd az
S7OO. 900 600 yearly. or for tho portion OF
the population which consumes liquors OF
various kinds. about SIS 90 for each indiv'd-
ual Tho consumption OF spirits appears 70
have slightly decreased from 1892 to 1885
though lcss than tenth OF gallon. and the
Of wines about as much in guam
tity and much moro relatively. But the con-
sumption OF beer increased from 9.S gallons
for each inha bitant in 1882 to 1O.9 gallons
for each inhabitant In 1856.

A good deal is expected Of Mayor Hewitt on
the first of May, for dozen commissionerships,
more or less, must be filed on or near that
date. The expectations of the public are that
only good men will be appointed while the
expectations of the Tammany and County
Democracy office seekers are that some worthy
partisans will be remembered. We hope that
the public are not doomed to disappointment.
There is general belief prevailing that Mr..
Hewitt differs from all the Democrats that have
preceded HIM in the Mayors Office. Seeing is

Deadly ELECTRIC Wires.

Expert testimony has shown that in a
variety of WAYS life is endangered by
these wires. Not only are the workmen
VINO handle them in peril, but slight
abrasion of wire, such as would readi-
" be caused by rubbing against a pole
or another wire, opens the way to va
riety of accidents. A fireman going over
the roof of building might catch hold
OF such wire and meet instant death.
If 4 stream OF water thrown from an
engine should touch m abrased wire
the electric current would pass down
the stream and prove fatal to the meu
directing it. Property is not safe any
more than life while these wires are
allowed 10 run along the streets and
